The conversation with Alexander concluded on a positive note.
His initial frustration towards Ryntum had ebbed away, replaced by a more thoughtful contemplation of the possible motives behind Inver's actions.
Alexander recognized that Inver's manipulations could be aimed at sowing discord between Ryntum and Inverloch.
Given the historical tensions between the two nations, Riz understood that the current situation was like a smouldering fire, waiting for the right spark to escalate into conflict.
As Alexander took his leave, Theodora gracefully stepped in to join the conversation. Her presence was a welcome interruption as she introduced a new individual to Riz.
"Riz, let me introduce you to Lady Vivienne from the Kingdom of Lesparia." Theodora's words were accompanied by a warm smile.
